| Background | The antibody reacts with a monomorphic determinant on MHC class II, HLA-D region molecules. It detects the molecules of the HLA-DR, DP and DQ loci. It inhibits the mixed lymphocyte culture. It also reacts with MHC class II molecules of various animals and is a useful tool for studies with dogs. The antibody is useful for the identification of HLA-D positive molecules using either microcytotoxicity testing or immunofluorescence/immunoperoxidase procedures. Furthermore, it was found useful for studies on functional aspects of MHC class II molecules. |
